Privacy Policy

QR Code Data Collection and Usage

When you create a QR code using our service, we collect and store the following information:

• The URL or content that the QR code points to
• The name you assign to the QR code
• The date and time the QR code was created
• Your user account information (as the creator of the QR code)

This information is necessary to provide our core service: generating, managing, and hosting your QR codes.

QR Code Scanning and Analytics

Important: Our service does not track individual QR code scans or collect data about the people who scan your QR codes. However, please be aware that:

• If your QR code points to a website you own, that website may have its own tracking mechanisms
• If your QR code points to a third-party website, that website will likely collect visitor data according to its own privacy policy

We recommend informing people about where a QR code will lead them before they scan it, especially if it connects to sites that collect personal information.

Website Cookies and Consent Management

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, analyze site performance, and deliver relevant advertising. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our site.

We categorize the cookies we use as follows:

• Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the website to function correctly. They enable basic features like page navigation, security, and access to your account. You cannot opt out of necessary cookies.
• Analytics Cookies: These help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting anonymous information (e.g., pages visited, time spent on site). We use this data, often processed by services like Google Analytics, to improve our website and services.
• Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring ads are properly displayed, and in some cases selecting advertisements based on your interests. This may involve storing advertising-related information (controlled by 'Ad Storage' consent) and using your data for advertising purposes even without cookies (controlled by 'Ad User Data' consent) or for personalized ads (controlled by 'Ad Personalization' consent). We may use services like Google Ads for this purpose.

Managing Your Consent: When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner where you can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" or similar link typically found in the website footer. Your choices determine how services like Google Analytics and Google Ads operate, in line with Google's Consent Mode requirements. Declining consent for analytics or advertising will limit the data collected for these purposes.

Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect the data associated with your QR codes, including:

• Secure storage of QR code data using encryption
• Authentication requirements to manage your created QR codes
• Regular security assessments of our systems

While we take these precautions, please be aware that no method of internet transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

User Rights and Control

As a user of our service, you have the right to:

• View all QR codes you have created
• Delete any QR codes you no longer need
• Update the destination of dynamic QR codes
• Request deletion of your account and associated data

To exercise these rights, use the management tools in your account dashboard or contact our support team.

Privacy Best Practices for QR Code Creators

When creating QR codes with our service, we recommend following these privacy best practices:

• Be transparent about where your QR code will lead people
• Don't use QR codes to collect sensitive personal information without proper security measures
• Consider the privacy implications if your QR code leads to a form that collects personal data
• If your QR code leads to content with age restrictions or sensitive information, provide appropriate warnings

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new privacy policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.

We encourage you to review this privacy policy periodically for any changes.
